In late January, 2014, the URL for EZID’s home page changed from http://n2t.net/ezid to http://ezid.cdlib.org. The URL for the application programming interface (API) also changed to http://ezid.cdlib.org. This change provides a more natural branding for EZID and improves our flexibility to provide N2T as a separate resolver service.

URLs for your identifiers have NOT and will not change.

We will support redirection from our old URL for at least one year so you will have ample time to implement any necessary updates.

EZID team members attended the International Data Curation Conference (IDCC) in San Francisco. Most of the conference materials are now available online:

EZID Service Description
EZID (easy-eye-dee) is a production service that gives researchers the ability to create and manage long-term identifiers so that they can to track usage, get credit for their work, share their data, and have the data reused for additional research. As a result, EZID identifiers also make it possible to increase citations, to build on previous work, to conduct new research, and avoid duplicating previous efforts.
